Abstract
A method (600) of synthesizing a response to an operating situation of a vehicle includes the step of generating a master condition list (602), determining the existence of an operating situation (604), determining an operator cognitive load (606) and determining a response to the operating situation based in part on the master condition list and the operator cognitive load (608). The master condition list is a fusion of sensor data gathered within and around the vehicle. The operator cognitive load is a measure of the operator's ability to handle tasks within the vehicle.
